International League fixes pay cap for minor league clubs
The International League agreed to a salary limit of 39 000 per club per season with no more than 6 500 paid monthly in May to August, leaving 13 000 for openings before May 1 and after September 1. The move mirrors a National Association policy and leaves the Pacific Coast League as the lone Class AA circuit without a cap. Prospective buyers surfaced for Kansas City and Toledo clubs as the 31st annual meeting approached, with Des Moines owner Keyser hinting at a Des Moines sale not affecting his Western League club.
